Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the tamari/soy sauce, mirin, agave syrup, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Once combined, add the tofu slices and coat these well, gently turning them over once or twice. Note: You could also use a freezer bag for the marinade - just be gentle with the tofu slices as they may start to fall apart if you move them around too much.
- Leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 30 mins, but ideally for several hours or even overnight. Turn once or twice during this time to coat with the marinade.
- Preheat the barbecue/grill to a medium heat (not scorching hot or else the tofu will quickly burn). Add the tofu slices and cook for approx. 5 minutes on each side, brushing regularly with the leftover marinade. The tofu should be crispy on both sides with slight char marks.
- Remove from the grill and serve, adding a final brush of the teriyaki marinade before sprinkling with toasted sesame seeds and sliced spring onions.
- In a frying pan or griddle pan, heat a small amount of cooking oil on medium heat. Add the tofu slices and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until crispy.
- Once the tofu is crispy, add some of the remaining marinade to the pan and cook for a few more minutes, turning the tofu once or twice. This will help to add a little extra flavour, glaze the tofu slices, and create a sauce for serving.
- Remove from the pan and serve, drizzling over any sauce left in the pan and sprinkling with toasted sesame seeds and sliced spring onions.

- To prep the tofu: Prepare the tofu by draining it, and then pressing it for 30 minutes to 1 hour. I love using my Tofuture tofu press, but you can also follow these instructions for a DIY tofu pressing method. Pressing the tofu squeezes excess water out so that the tofu can suck up more of the marinade and also will make the texture a bit chewier.
- In a bowl or measuring cup, mix together the sauce ingredients: the water, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Set aside.
- Once the tofu is pressed, remove the tofu and pat dry, then use your fingers to tear into chunks about 1" in size. Some chunks will be bigger and others will be smaller and that's perfect! Tearing the tofu will make for the best chicken-like texture and also helps grip the sauce better. Add the tofu to a medium bowl, and sprinkle over the cornstarch. Toss well to coat.
- Heat the light oil over medium-high heat in a cast iron skillet or non-stick pan. Once hot, add the tofu, and cook for about 5 minutes, flipping as needed until the tofu is lightly browned all over.

- Press the tofu. To do this, simply remove the tofu from the package, wrap it with a cheesecloth or paper towels then placed the wrapped tofu on a clean plate. Place a stack of cookbooks, coffee table books or 2-4 dishes over the tofu and allow to sit for 15-20 minutes.
- Unwrap the pressed tofu and cut into small cubes (about 1-inch each). Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and pour in the oil.
- In a shallow bowl, mix together the cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Add the tofu and stir until evenly coated on all sides. Immediately add the tofu to the hot oil in a single layer. Pan-fry for 4 minutes or until golden, then flip and fry for another 3-4 minutes or until golden. You can also fry each of the 3 remaining edges for about 1 minute each for extra crispiness, this is optional.
- While the tofu is frying, prepare the homemade Teriyaki sauce. Simply mix together all the sauce ingredients: brown sugar, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, water, rice vinegar, cornstarch, and mirin (optional). Whisk until fully blended and smooth, then set aside.

- Whisk together the soy sauce, Soom Silan, mirin, 1/4 cup of water, minced garlic, and onion powder. Add the mixture to a small pot and turn on med-low heat to bring to a simmer.
- In a small bowl whisk together the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of water to make a slurry then add it to the sauce in the pot. Whisk to combine and let simmer for 1-2 minutes to thicken until it clings to a spoon. Turn off the heat and set aside until ready to use. Can be made in advance and stored in the fridge.
- In a large bowl mix together the rice flour, sesame seeds, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, white pepper, sesame oil, and water to make a thick batter. Pour half of the mixture into a second bowl. Add the cauliflower florets to one bowl and the tofu to a second bowl and gently toss to coat with the batter. If needed sprinkle on extra rice flour to thicken the batter.
- To deep fry: Heat a couple of inches of oil in a pan to 375 ºF, or until the oil bubbles around a piece of batter when dropped in. Fry the cauliflower and tofu in batches for about 5 minutes each batch until they turn a light golden brown and drain them on a paper towel lined plate.

- Heat a dash of oil in a large frying pan, and add the pieces of tofu. Cook over a medium heat for around 10 minutes, turning the tofu over ever few minutes, until it's crispy all over. You actually want to cook it until it's a bit too dry, as it will rehydrate once the sauce is added.
- When the tofu is very dry and crispy, add the minced garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 more minute, then add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a simmer, and cook for a few more minutes until the sauce has become thick and sticky. If you want a slightly saucier dish, you can add a dash more water (or a little more of any of the sauce ingredients).
